Chapter 744: Chapter 744: Not to Return a Favor is Against the Rules

Li Ao scrutinized Fang Bai, noticing his attire clearly indicated that he was a martial artist from the secular world, with a cultivation level at only Earth Level Perfection. He couldn’t fathom how this man had silently killed four of his Elders and over a dozen disciples at the Earth Level Realm.

"Who are you?"

Li Ao asked with a cold voice, looking at the more than twenty corpses on the ground, his chest boiling with rage, Essence Energy swirling around him, his fists tightly clenched.

"You don’t recognize me, but you must know Baili Zhan, Yang Xudong! I am their friend, here to collect a debt on their behalf!"

Fang Bai’s eyes flashed coldly as he walked step by step towards Li Ao, stopping three zhang away from him.

Disciples of "Ghost Doctor Valley," nearly a hundred of them, having heard the news, fanned out and surrounded Fang Bai in three inner and three outer layers, each one with eyes fiercely intent and brimming with Killing Qi.

"Baili Zhan... Yang Xudong..."

Li Ao muttered these two names under his breath, his pupils suddenly contracting as he raised his voice, "The disciples I sent to pursue and kill these two traitors, was it also you who killed them?"

Fang Bai nodded and said, "Yes, I killed them! I’ve entered Hidden Sect this time to seek justice for my friends!"

Li Ao shouted angrily, "You’ve killed so many of my ’Ghost Doctor Valley’ disciples, isn’t this revenge enough for you?"

Fang Bai shook his head and replied, "Not enough! I plan to annihilate your ’Ghost Doctor Valley’ once and for all!"

"Hahaha..."

Instead of anger, Li Ao burst into laughter, raising his hand to point at Fang Bai, declaring loudly, "What big words coming from a milk-nosed boy, don’t bite your tongue! My ’Ghost Doctor Valley’ has hundreds of disciples; do you think you alone can exterminate us?"

Fang Bai shrugged his shoulders and said, "Won’t know unless I try, right? I’ve already killed more than twenty of your disciples, including four Elders. It looks like your ’Ghost Doctor Valley’ disciples aren’t that strong after all!"

"Die!"

These words were like rubbing salt into Li Ao’s wounds. Enraged by Fang Bai’s remark, Li Ao flicked his right hand, and something dark, the size of a chicken egg, tore through the air with a splitting force, whistling towards Fang Bai.

"Five Poisons Smoke Bomb?"

Although the chicken-egg-sized object flew swiftly, it couldn’t escape Fang Bai’s eyes, who recognized it instantly as a particularly vicious and powerful hidden weapon from "Ghost Doctor Valley," known as the "Five Poisons Smoke Bomb," which had been used by the disciples Cuihun and Life-Snatching during their pursuit to kill Baili Zhan and his wife.

However, the "Five Poisons Smoke Bomb," when used by Cuihun and Life-Snatching, wasn’t the same in terms of speed and power as it was in Li Ao’s hands.

The "Five Poisons Smoke Bomb" unleashed by Li Ao, during its high-speed flight, carried a fierce True Essence Force, capable of smashing even a martial artist at Earth Level Perfection to death.

What made the "Five Poisons Smoke Bomb" so deadly was the toxic smoke it contained. Once exploded, the smoke could envelop an area several zhang around, and the touch of even a whisper of poison smoke on the skin would rapidly cause the body to rot and lead to death.

Boom—

When the "Five Poisons Smoke Bomb" was still less than one zhang away from Fang Bai, it exploded in mid-air with a faint sound.

A plume of pink smoke instantly enveloped Fang Bai’s entire body, while he, seemingly scared stiff, remained motionless in its midst.

The disciples of "Ghost Doctor Valley" surrounding Fang Bai let out a cheer, convinced that Fang Bai was a dead man.

However, Li Ao did not show any sign of joy, for he knew that Fang Bai had managed to silently kill four elders of the valley and a dozen disciples of the Earth Level Realm; his strength must not be as simple as it appeared on the surface. The "Five Poisons Smoke Bomb" was indeed powerful, but whether it could harm him was still questionable.

Enveloped in the poison mist, Fang Bai remained silent and did not let out the screams some disciples of the "Ghost Doctor Valley" had anticipated.

As the poisonous smoke gradually dissipated, Fang Bai’s figure emerged. He had a mocking smile at the corner of his mouth and stood tall and proud, showing no signs of being affected by the poison.

"How is this possible?"

Some disciples of the "Ghost Doctor Valley" cried out in astonishment, their faces displaying utter disbelief.

Even though they were the ones who could concoct the "Five Poisons Smoke Bomb," if they had not taken the antidote in advance, they would not have been able to stay in the poison cloud for such a long time. It appeared that this young martial artist from the secular world was also an expert in handling poison, one whose skills surpassed theirs.

"What comes around goes around. I also have a few self-made ’Five Poisons Smoke Bombs’ here, let me offer them to you as a taste!"

Fang Bai laughed out loud and, under the astonished gaze of nearly a hundred "Ghost Doctor Valley" disciples around him, he threw his hands upward, sending four fist-sized spherical objects into the air. They simultaneously exploded above the heads of the "Ghost Doctor Valley" disciples, releasing the same pink smoke.

Most of the "Ghost Doctor Valley" disciples on the scene reckoned that they had taken the antidote and were impervious to all poisons, so they were fearless when engulfed in the pink smoke. Some even let out a disdainful laugh.

Fang Bai was laughing too, looking at them as if they were a bunch of fools, without a hint of pity in his eyes.

"Ah... my eyes... I can’t see!

"Black blood is coming out of my nose! Help..."

"My throat... heh heh..."

"My skin is so itchy..."

In the blink of an eye, some of the weaker disciples of the "Ghost Doctor Valley" realized something was wrong. Some bled from all seven orifices, their blood black as ink; others felt an unbearable itchiness that caused their skin to ulcerate upon scratching... These were indeed symptoms of poisoning from the "Five Poisions Smoke Bomb."

"Why isn’t our antidote working?"

The "Ghost Doctor Valley" disciples who inhaled the poisonous smoke asked themselves this question.

What they did not know was that when it came to using poison, if Fang Bai claimed to be second best in the world, then surely no one would dare claim to be the first.

The "Five Poisons Smoke Bombs" Fang Bai had released were concocted during his spare time, using five different types of toxic flowers and herbs, wildly different from what the "Ghost Doctor Valley" disciples used. The toxicity was at least ten times more potent than the "Ghost Doctor Valley" disciples’ "Five Poisons Smoke Bombs." Therefore, the antidote taken by the "Ghost Doctor Valley" disciples was utterly ineffective.

Fang Bai had prepared the "Five Poisons Smoke Bombs" initially as a countermeasure in case he encountered "Ghost Doctor Valley" disciples again in the future. He intended to give them a taste of their own medicine, letting them experience the agony of poison coursing through their bodies. Today, the poison bombs had finally served their purpose.

Like a crazed plague spreading wildly, screams of agony from the surrounding "Ghost Doctor Valley" disciples echoed one after another, followed by people collapsing limply to the ground.

In just a short span of tens of breaths, dozens of "Ghost Doctor Valley" disciples who had been surrounded by the toxic smoke started bleeding from all their orifices, their bodies ulcerated, succumbing to death with horribly tragic deaths.

The fallen disciples of the "Ghost Doctor Valley," although only one-tenth of the total number of disciples, were the elite among them with Earth Level powers. It could be said that half of the "Ghost Doctor Valley’s" fighting force had perished here.
